Superb!
Monday, July 11th, 2011
Superb.
It is defined as being marked with grandeur, excellence, brilliance or competence. Now I would love to strut around town telling everyone River Glass Designs does superb work. However it seems that people find it rude when you “toot your own horn” so to speak. And don’t even get me started on the reaction I get when I strut around. The negative stuff I don’t mind, but all the whistling and cat calls, it gets embarrassing. So I’m left with a bit of a dilemma, how do I get the word out to everyone that River Glass Designs is indeed superb.
Hmmm…
I could make a video with a cute kitten playing in a tree, and then it falls out of the tree but instead of hitting the ground… it flies away… into space…because it’s a super space cat… and when he gets to space he meets up with his best friend a super space dog named Barks McGee and together they protect the universe from the evil teddy bears of planet Nebulon, whose only desire is to turn our planet into a giant marshmallow, but that’s not gonna happen! No it’s not! Not with Whiskers Tabington and Barks McGee on our side!
Or I could get a football player to endorse us…
Yeah, someone with a Super Bowl ring or even better a Super Bowl MVP, yeah a Super Bowl MVP, Hall of Fame Running Back, instantly recognized by football fans the world over… Now who could we get…
Uh…How ‘Bout the one, the only, Mr. John Riggins – yeah that’s right The Diesel:

Tonight at 11: Are You Poisoning Your Family?
Monday, June 27th, 2011
Well are you? I’m sure you’re wondering what I’m talking about. So I’ll tell you…
Right After this Commercial Break!
Wow you just got Seacrested! I coined that phrase by the way, feel free to use it.
So anywho, back to the matter at hand – that of you poisoning that lovely family of yours with…(drum roll please)
A cheap shower curtain.
In 2008, a study was released revealing that vinyl shower curtains sold at major retailers across the country emit toxic chemicals that can cause serious health problems! Like What? Oh let’s see here, like um a little thing called liver damage, as well as damage to the central nervous, respiratory and reproductive systems!
The study was conducted at the Center for Health, Environment & Justice, located in Falls Church, VA.
Some of the chemicals found in the curtains were: toluene, phenol, methyl isobutyl ketone, xylene, acetophenone and more. Now I don’t know about you but I’ve been taught that when a word is hard to pronounce it’s usually important! Like SAT words and Menu Items at an Indian restaurant. Trust me you don’t want to accidentally order the curried pig feet. Although the one my mom makes is Delicious!
Think about it though, do you want to wake up one morning and get a mouth full of METHYL ISOBUTY KETONE!!! I sure don’t! Unless it taste like rainbows. And by rainbows I of course mean Skittles. Watch a commercial once in awhile will ya.
Well it seems irresponsible to point out a problem, that of you poisoning your family, without giving a solution.
Once Again, Drum roll please……
A Beautiful Frameless Shower from River Glass Designs or A Beautiful Semi-Frameless Shower from River Glass Designs or A Beautiful Bypass Shower from River Glass Designs or… you could just stop showering, at which point you will begin to poison your family and friends in a much different way. Yeah you’ll save lots of time by not showering, but soon everyone will hate you, you’ll lose your job and end up living on the street.
Is that what you want? Cause those are your only options. A shower from us or a life filled with hate filled stares as you drag your stinky self all over the DC metro area…
Choose Wisely!

OJ, not Simpson, the actual Juice, that you drink…
Monday, May 2nd, 2011
Do you like orange juice? Of course you do! Unless your some kind of silly head or something.
I bet you even have a favorite brand…What is it? Wait! On the count of 3 say it out loud.
1
2
3!!!
Now apologize to whoever’s around you. Because no one knows what you’re doing, because no one reads this blog.
Back to the topic at hand: I also bet if I told you that orange juice is orange juice, if I said it’s all the same and all tastes the same, you would wholeheartedly disagree – wouldn’t you?
In fact you would no doubt argue that your favorite is the best, offering some sort of awkward explanation, which would only make you seem crazy and prove that you have way too much free time.
I would also bet there’s been an instance where money was tight and you figured you’d just get that generic brand of orange juice. BIG MISTAKE! Which I’m sure you immediately realized as you took your first sip of the orange flavored battery acid with an aftertaste to match.
But it does help you see that sometimes, it’s better to spend a little more to get the good stuff.
Frameless Showers, Mirrors, and this business we call glass is the same. Like orange juice there’s a ton of choices, but only you can decide what’s best for you. We can all try and convince you whose best or what’s best, but I’m sure it can, at times, make us, sound crazy. Glass is glass. It’s the experience that differs.
You can go for the cheap stuff, but prepare for the aftertaste. Or you can spring for the premium. Now I would love to be able to say: “River Glass Designs is the premium, the only premium!”
But that’s not true, there are others, companies who also love this industry and do their utmost to provide beautiful quality products. Even still, we would love to give you a taste of our service and workmanship. So give us a call, shoot us an email or drop by the showroom.
Because the best part of waking up, is Fold…g…ers… in… your…cup
That’s coffee…
…not orange juice…uh…
Do you like coffee? Of course you do! Unless your some kind of silly head or something.
I bet you even have a favorite brand…What is it? Wait! On the count of 3 say it out loud…

Since We’ve Been Gone!
Monday, February 7th, 2011
The long unnecessary, but much enjoyed hiatus is over. It’s been quite some time since we’ve spoken to each other and a lot has happened since then.
My sister Britani got married and I have a new nephew and niece (not Britani’s).
John and Gary went to England and Spain and then skiing and then skiing again (must be nice).
Justin went to Costa Rica and rented a car while he was there ( evidently that’s a big deal ).
Megan is now pregnant with her second child and our new estimator Jonathan got a Kinect by Xbox. Now I know what you’re thinking: “Why would we hire a child to be an estimator?”
We Didn’t! Jonathan is a grown man with no kids and still decided to get a Kinect. Puzzling, isn’t it?
But then again he does bring lunchables and hot pockets for lunch, so maybe he’s just a kid at heart.
Well, this ManChild has over 10 years of experience under his belt. He has installed everything from beautiful frameless showers and mirrors down to the very glass in our storefront. His experience, his will to learn and above all else his genuine likeability make him the perfect fit for the River Glass Designs Team. With the addition of Jonathan we can now offer free home estimates for your glass project Monday thru Friday.
So together let’s make 2011 the glassiest year ever! See what I did there… Instead of classiest I said glassiest … pretty good huh?
Huh?….Huh?
You know what, this is exactly why I left!

Inception
Monday, July 19th, 2010
This weekend I saw Inception. It was an amazing, mind-bending, intellectual thriller. A truly unique movie that was brilliantly executed. But what was really eye catching was the frameless shower.
The what!? Yeah, that’s right the frameless shower. When everyone goes into the second level dream, they end up in some swanky hotel. At one point they enter one of the rooms and very clearly in the background is a beautiful frameless shower, that they show at least twice. Did River Glass Designs install that particular shower…Maybe we did and maybe we didn’t. We didn’t. But we could have if someone had asked nicely, I’m looking at you DiCaprio!
Now if you want the same shower featured in, what is so far, the years best film just give us a call. I’m sure you’ve been wanting to call us for awhile now anyway… In fact this is all your idea… Isn’t it!?
BAM!!! You’ve just been incepted…
